Dear Kavanagh family. Sorry for your loss. I grew up on kosh lake in the summers with my grandma Ruth Hewitt. Harry and George Rigby and I would pull stumps out of the bay for granny and other things like putting docks and boat away for winter Harry was always nice to me and my grandma and always helped out when he could. Great Man. He will b missed.
